Leaders in wellness Aman are taking their wellness programming to the next level in a pioneering move to introduce integrated medical services to their wellness retreats. Launching at their flagship property, Amanpuri in Phuket, Thailand, the expansion is part of a growing trend towards holistic programming.
Run at the expansive new Holistic Wellness Centre in Amanpuri, the certified medical team from world-renowned sports resort Thanyapura provide integrative medical services in three categories: anti-ageing and preventive medicine, aesthetics, and sports performance.

Medical retreats have tended towards the clinical and curative in the past, but Aman’s foray into medical services is another step towards the preventative wellness trends of the last year. While guests can enjoy all the usual Aman wellness activities like yoga, meditation and spa treatments, guests will also have access to state-of-the-art technology and world-class health practitioners to provide medical therapies.
Any guest receiving medical treatments will begin with a medical assessment with a qualified doctor: this diagnostic consultation may include live blood analysis, food intolerance/micronutrient blood tests, performance blood tests, a heavy-metal OligoScan, and urine indican testing.
Based on the results of these tests and a consultation with the guest on their long-term wellness goals, lifestyle and interests, the on-site doctor and health practitioners will create a bespoke wellness programme, including a personalised diet plan in consultation with Aman’s naturopaths and chefs.
Overseen by Thanyapura Director Dr Narinthorn Surasinthorn and his specialist team of medical doctors, physiotherapists, chiropractors, nutritionist, Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) practitioners and Ayurvedic physicians, guests can be assured that all medical treatments and prescriptions are coming from a certified medical authority.
The medical services offered will include a range of treatments, from preventative to aesthetic to curative, including:
- DNA Lifestyle Genetic Analysis and Basic Wellness Gene Tests
- Intravenous (IV) Nutrient Infusion Therapy
- Chelation injections
- Nebido and Genotropin hormone injections
- Personalised supplement plan
- Colon Hydrotherapy

- Physiotherapy
- High-Intensity Laser (HIL) therapy

As part of Amanpuri’s new Intensive Wellness Immersions individualised programmes, these clinical treatments will be balanced in a programme of spa services from massages to facials, all using Aman’s new all-natural skincare range. Offering a variety of ‘pathways’ to help guests focus on their goals, guests can choose between Weight Management & Transformation; Detox & Cleansing; Sports Recovery & Rehabilitation; or Rejuvenation & Optimal Wellbeing.
In addition to the new medical services, Amanpuri’s Holistic Wellness Centre will continue to offer beauty treatments alongside energy healing, including cranial sacral therapy, mind training, Chi Nei Tsang, connective tissue massage, reconnective healing and lymphatic drainage massage, among many others.
